Sandra Bullock is “doing okay” as she reaches a significant birthday milestone following a challenging period in her life.
The Academy Award-winning actress, who turned 60 on July 26, faced a difficult year after the death of her partner, Bryan Randall, who passed away at 57 after a three-year battle with ALS.
Bullock had publicly announced her need to “take a pause” from her career about a year and a half before Randall’s death to spend time with her family, including her two children, now 11 and 14.
“She’s doing okay now. Her kids are amazing. She’s very happy to be a mom,” a source close to Bullock’s friend Jennifer Aniston, 55, told.
“Her friends gave her the support that she needed both during his illness and afterwards. She is grateful for all the love,” the source added. “Everyone helped to lift her up after Bryan passed.”
At the time of Randall’s death, Bullock’s most recent starring roles were in the 2022 films “Bullet Train” and “The Lost City”, in which she also served as a producer.
In a 2022 interview, she revealed that she knew during the production of The Lost City that it would be her last movie for a while.

“I don’t know what ‘a while’ is,” she told. “I would just love to clean out the basement.”
Since then, Bullock has not made an appearance on the big screen, although she recently hinted at a return.
While marking the 30th anniversary of her film “Speed” with Keanu Reeves in May, Bullock appeared with her co-star on the 50 MPH podcast, where the pair teased another joint film in the future.
“Before I die, before I leave this planet, I do think that Keanu and I need to do something in front of the camera,” Bullock said when the podcast’s host suggested lobbying for a third “Speed” movie. “Are we, you know, in wheelchairs or with walkers? Maybe. Maybe.”
Before that potential on-screen reunion, Bullock is set to team up again with Nicole Kidman in a sequel to their 1998 romance fantasy “Practical Magic”.
“Yes, I will be in it. And Sandy will be in it. And that’s that,” Kidman told at the time. “There’s a lot more to tell, which is why we go, ‘OK, this is kind of interesting now to be able to do this.'”
She added, “[We] found a way in.”
